Which one are you going to pick?

Ulumuqi, the capital city of Xinjiang autonomous region was suffering sandstorm on august 4, 2011. That’s too bad, I think it’s time for us to care about the earth and protect the green cover. Hundreds of thousands of people was using their clothes to cover their faces to protect from the sand. It seems I am so lucky to live in south china, because this place is far from the desert.

 

But south china is also facing another big trouble. In my homeland Longlin county Baise city Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region is suffering drought. I got the news from china daily. It has not been raining since April, so there is no water for the crop. To make matter worse there is also no water for the people to drink and to prepare food. The village people there have to walk two hours to get water to survive. I saw the pictures in the newspaper. Longlin is a county which is far from my homeland 300 KM, but we are belong to the same city. I am feeling the heartache.

 

I remembered when I was little there were too many trees in the forest, so we don’t care about there will be no water. Many wild animals were living the jungle like the wild pigs and the wolves. But now when I get my hometown, the forest has gone and all the woods were cut and carried to the city.

 

When I was a college student my teacher told us a story at the class. When a farmer was cutting the wood in the forest to make a living a journalist asked him. “Do you know when all the woods were cut there will be the end of the world?” “Yes I do!” the farmer answered. “Here is a multiple choice for you: A. you are going to die today B. you are going to die next week C. you are going to die next year. Which one are you going to pick?”

 

Which one are you going to pick?

you are right,my friend. surely so many bad weather questions now,even some have lesd to many big disasters to our human being. Environmental protection has been caused enough attention,not only in china but also on internation world in fact. more popular on the small earth and more less resource we have, the  contradiction between environment and development become more and more emergency, it need more science method to control,need raise the human's high realization,need make every department or whole humankind's effort,need whole  continuous trying  in this field, which will benefit our offspring.

i really desire the beautiful picture in your hometown when you are little boy.Many wild animals were living the jungle like the wild pigs and the wolves? what a great drawing!

if everyone say the truth,the answer must be :neither all!
wish the green water shining clear sky!

the environmental problem is just a refelection of contradictory minds of mankind .one side ,we worry about the future of us and feel powerless facing these issues .on the other side,we would like to believe that the thoughts of mankind is omnipotent .even now we cant create something out of nothing and cant eliminate thing as small as one atom ,few of us want admit we are never the dominator of the world .so sometimes ,when we meet some people who are adrent environmentalist ,dont respect them too much ,their behavior just show they still believe human being have the ability to solve the trouble alone .environemnt is nature ,nature create us ,and it need no protection from us .

i agree that we humans are not omnipotent and we are just part of nature. however, in the last hundreds of years, the population of humans has been rapidly increasing and the technology has also advanced at an unprecedented speed. the adverse influence is obvious. if we don't try to live harmoniously with nature, we will be punished by nature sooner or later. after all we have only one earth to live on.
